Re: Re: drawing text issue

Hi Johnson,

You can draw text efficiently(see the patch).

CAD uses stick fonts because all fonts are drawn as lines(polylines) and can be converted to CAD entities.

I'm wondering if it's okay to support ordinary fonts, and only revert back to stick fonts when converting is needed. This means efficiency and easy support for all languages.

For the time being, let's fix bugs in 2.0 for a stable release. After that, we implement new features in 2.1.

Thanks,

dxli
